WASHINGTON CITY, Jan. 24.-It is gener-
ally assumed that the president will approve
the interstate commerce bill, and so there is
already great deal of speculation about the
appointees on the commission. There are to
be five commissioners, each at a salary of
81, 800 per year As the law prescribes that
not more than three shall belong to the same
political party, the presumption is that three
of them will be Democrats and two Repub-
licans. The name of Representative Morri-
son has been mentioned as one of the prob
able appointees The general impression
seems to be that no member Of congress will
be on the commission, for the reason that the
commission viii most likely be appointed by
the president in time to be confirmed by the
senate before March 4 This. of course,

Riddleberger for the last few days has been

He says that the senate is no place for poor
man, that it is rather club of wealthy ma,
hobs who look with derision upon a man be
low them in wealth He thinks he is not ap
preciated in the senate on account of his
poverty, and has concluded TO resign.

DULUTH, Mimi. May 14.-The market to-
day was very interesting and very firm.
Prices advanced ss@l2c over last nights
close. The firmness was due to the strength
shown at Chicago and New York. There
were weak spots here when there was a con-
siderable quantity of wheat for sale. AS one
prominent operator expressed it, the mar
ket was in just such condition that it was
easily affected either way The general
situation is good deal of a conundrum.
The export business continues good. Clear
ances for the weak have been excellent but
there is weak undertone, which is notice
able in the face of these facts, and the buy
ing up of Chicago stocks by clique holders.
